SAY WHAT?
LETTER OF THE WEEK
YOU MUST UNDERSTAND that a great many golf fans
are prehistoric and lack any form of humour, as this
was frowned upon back in dark days when they reined
the fairways. The unfortunate thing about this demographic
is that now they have more time on their hands to complain
about anything that seems fitting at the time. And as I
understand it, this is also one of the more favored pastimes of
the decrepit. I cannot say that I concur with Adam Scott being
a “pretty boy” [OTG Express, May 21] as the Dickey Knee hair
just doesn’t do it for me. But I find no offence in the comment.
As with all things golf related folks just need to chill out a
little. This great game is now for the young and the young
at heart and the occasional laugh is welcomed. Keep up the
good work I say.

GOOD ONE OTG. Couldn't agree more with your sentiments.
Your levity is certainly welcomed and appreciated every time
I open the OTG link. (The golf industry needs to stop taking
itself so seriously.) You have a great little product on your
hands and I wish you and your team the greatest of success.

BET THAT MUST have been a bloke complaining [OTG May
24]. Why apologise? If I didn't have my own pretty boy of golf,
Scotty could be my foursomes partner any time.

TIGER WOODS STATES that players (like Kevin Na) should be
penalised for slow play [OTG May,17] . Is this total hypocrite
for real? This from a guy who on the putting green walks
around the hole, looks at each putt from four different angles,
casually walks around the hole back to his ball again, gets
down, shows complete disrespect towards opponents by
spitting a few feet away from the cup for good measure, then
finally decides to get over the ball...before having a couple of
practice strokes. C'mon Tiger, hit the ball! Maybe he should
look at himself before commenting about others. At least with
Kevin Na it’s psychological; with Tiger it’s just normal routine.
